Given,
Numbers from 1 to 150.
To find,
How many numbers are divisible by 9.
Solution,
- The smallest number from 1 to 150 that is divisible by 9 is ⇒ 9.
- The largest number from 1 to 150 that is divisible by 9 is ⇒
Divide 150 by 9 and then subtract the remainder.
- So the largest number between 1 to 150 that is divisible by 9 is 144.
Therefore,
9,18,27,36,till144 are the numbers between 1 to 150 that are divisible by 9 and it is in Arithmetic Progression because there is a common difference of 9 between them.
To count the numbers of terms in 9,18,27,36 till 144 is-
an = a + (n-1)d
where an is the last term, a is the first term and d is the common difference between the term.
⇒ 144 = 9 + (n-1)9
⇒ 144 = 9 + 9n - 9
⇒ 144 = 9n
⇒ n = 144/9
⇒ n = 16.
Hence, the numbers of terms up to 150 that are divisible by 9 are 16.
